UNIVERSITY is Muses' most clearly pop record..."Entertainment Weekly (1/20/95, p.52) - "...A propulsive brand of edgy guitar-rock that's ultimately more haunting than any confession Hersh utters..." - Rating: B+Option (5-6/95, p.139) - "...unplugged or plugged, the intensity and honesty of Hirsch's songs is the same. Hirsch grabs onto things that most push out of their minds...For the insomniac, UNIVERSITY is best in the broad daylight..."Musician (3/95, pp.82-83) - "...This alluring, elusive opus resists reduction to easy formulas....[Hersh] avoids cliches...crafting appealing hooks that melt away upon close inspection, while obliquely outlining common phenomena like desire, anger, and, especially, uncertainty..."NME (Magazine) (1/14/95, p.39) - 8 - Excellent - "...overpowering, not in a metallic way, but in a much more insidious manner, with light and shade provided by double-tracked vocals, liberal splashes of cello doom, generous guitar riffage and a boss rhythm section...essential..."64.1502
